Working at a resort can provide plenty of perks. Skiing privileges. YES PLEASE! Working outside and in the outdoor community can be some of the toughest jobs but it usually pays off after a big powder day or seeing a kid fall in love with skiing for the first time.
Why work at a ski resort you ask?
1. Work with and meet likeminded people
2. Skiing/Snowboarding perks! DUH!
3. Opportunities to work outside
4. Spread the stoke of skiing and snowboarding
5. Many resorts hire from within so a temporary winter job could end up being your lifelong dream job
6. Access to resort discounts
7. A chance to change other people's lives
